Charges for Calling selected Conference Numbers (New way of Making Money)

Magic Jack started charging for making calls to Conference Numbers. Pathetic..!!! To make a call to conference number we need to have pre paid balance under your account... Thats Rip Off. Another way to make money. I see this added under new terms of service — " We may require prepaid purchase and/or we may charge you for calls to conference lines, "... This was free till last week... Pathetic Magic Jack. I hope your new "features" doenst include charges for incoming call... Ha ha..

Please wait for a site operator to respond.

Customer: good. If that happens. It was a good run with magic jack for last 2 years. Looks like i will shift to someone better. That doesnt add "costly features " in middle. At the end, please dont charge for call from other service carriers... Its not a free phone. Its restricted phone. A bundled phone is better at least they dont charge anything extra. Bye
